My Answers to Stephen’s Questions:

What
inspired you to decide to start a blog?

I decided to start a blog for two reasons: 1) I wanted to
be able to have a place that I could discuss how I feel about books that it
outside of my family. 2) I wanted to be a part of the book blogging community.
I love interacting with everyone here, and this has definitely been the best
part of my blogging experience.

Where
is your favourite place to read?

I love to read in bed propped up on pillows with a glass
of wine or outside in the sunshine (also with some sort of adult beverage).

What
do you think is the most challenging thing about being a book blogger?

The most challenging part is writing reviews that are intelligible
rather than streaming together a mush of sentences that no one cares about. I’m
definitely hypercritical of my own reviews.

Do you
like to plan, or are you more of a spontaneous person?

I’m a planner through and through. I love lists and being
organized. I do enjoy some spontaneity, which is why my husband is perfect for
me since he reminds me to throw a curve ball in my schedule at times.

What
are your favourite blog posts to write?

I love doing posts where I am promoting authors either in
blog tours, cover reveals, Q&A, etc. Promoting debut authors and indie
authors was one of my major motivations to start a blog. My other favorite
posts are the WWW Wednesday weekly meme by Tynga. I love this post because it
helps me stay on track with my weekly goals.

Tea or
coffee?

I actually love both tea and coffee. I start off every day
with at least two cups of black coffee in the morning. I need my caffeine to
survive.

Which
country or place would you most like to visit?

I would love to visit the Amalfi Coast of Italy. It’s one
of the most picturesque places that I have ever seen in photos. Also, there’s
amazing seafood, and of course, wine.

Do you
have any reading goals for 2019?

My reading goals for 2019 are to read 100 books and
review the majority (if not all) of the books that I read.

What
was your last 5-star read?

My last 5-star read was The Unhoneymooners by Christina
Lauren. This was my book by her, and I have heard her stories are amazing. I
read The Unhoneymooners in one sitting. I couldn’t put it down.

What
is your favourite day of the week?

My favorite day of the week is Saturday. I work in the
lab (for grad school) Monday through Saturday, so Saturday night is the night that
I can just relax and not have to worry about preparing for the work week.

Of all
the books you own, which one has the nicest cover?

This is a really tough question. I think I’m going to go with The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon.
